1Introduction

The purpose of this guide is to provide experienced System Administrators with therequired information for setting up a Xerox Wide Format Printer within a variety ofnetwork environments.

FreeFlow® Accxes® Version 15.0 supports the following printers:

• 6204®

• 6279®

• 6604/6605 Solution™

• 6622 Solution™

• 7142

Although not all tasks are required for setup within every network environment, thetypical communications setup tasks include:

• Installing the print drivers

• Setting up the remote printer, including changing the password and setting the printerdefaults in the Web Printer Management Tool

• Printing a printer configuration test print.

• Installing the Accxes Client Tools (ACT) on user workstations, which enables users tosend print jobs that can override the default printer settings.

• Installing the Account Management Tool (AMT) on one workstation, from whichmedia usage data and scanner usage data are retrieved from the printers controller.

1-1Xerox® FreeFlow® Accxes® Print Server and Web Printer Management ToolSetup Guide

System RequirementsThere are several important system requirements for setting up network printing,including:

• A working knowledge of your network operating environment

• A workstation with the appropriate operating system software installed

• The proper TCP/IP protocol settings configured for network connectivity

• Network cabling that is compliant with Ethernet specifications for the environmentin which the printer is installed

Small Networks

For small networks consisting of several network-connected devices/workstations and asingle hub, it is necessary to set up the printer with an individual IP Address and a SubnetMask. The Subnet Mask must match all the other local area network-connectedworkstations in use. Unless a router (Gateway) is being used to gain access to the largerwide area network, a default Gateway address is not needed.

Larger Networks

For Larger Networks consisting of many network-connected devices/workstations, withmultiple hubs and routers, it is mandatory to set up the printer with an individual IPAddress and Subnet Mask. The Subnet Mask must match the subnet that the printer ison. The Gateway address is the router address that the printer uses to gain access tothe larger, wide area network.

NOTEThe IP address and Subnet Mask can be setup automatically using the DynamicHost Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This is accomplished once the networkconnection is configured via DHCP. Refer to Chapter 2 in this guide for details.

Prerequisite KnowledgeThe Xerox FreeFlow® Accxes® Wide Format Print Server v15.0 works with the followingmonochrome Xerox Wide Format printers: the 6204®, 6279®, 6604/6605 Solution™, and6622 Solutions™. This robust, sophisticated and easy to use image processing print serverprovides significant value to customer operations while ensuring fast, productive topquality results in every print or scan job.

FreeFlow Accxes Print Server operations are conducted through the copy and print systemUser Interface, Web Printer Management Tool, FreeFlow Accxes Client Tools, and printerdrivers.

Introduction

NOTEA note is a paragraph (separate from the body text) containing related informationthat merits emphasis.

WARNINGA warning indicates that an injury or loss of life may occur if an operating ormaintenance procedure, practice, or condition is not strictly observed.

CAUTIONA caution indicates that damage or destruction to hardware, software, or your datacould occur if an operating or maintenance procedure, practice, or condition is notstrictly observed.

Prerequisite Knowledge

What does Accxes do for you? Accxes is a Raster Image Processor (RIP). Accxes receivesrequests from various sources, including a client, using one of our print drivers, processesthe request, and then sends the information to the printer.

Web Printer Management Tool OverviewAs part of the FreeFlow Accxes firmware, the Web Printer Management Tool is accessedfrom your workstation using any of the following web browser software:

• Internet Explorer 8.0 (minimum or greater is required)

• Mozilla Firefox 3.6 (minimum or greater is required)

• Apple Safari 5.0 (minimum or greater is required)

• Google Chrome 5.0 (minimum or greater is required)

Later versions of the above software releases are applicable as well.

The instructions provided are specifically written for the most commonly used WindowsInternet Explorer browser and differ if you are using another browser software. It isassumed that System Administrators have a basic knowledge of their browser software.

The Web Printer Management Tool enables three major functions:

• Print job management and job status tracking

• Remote control over the printer default settings

• A method to enable job accounting for printed, copied, and scanned jobs. A SystemAdministrator can track media usage data and save it to the FreeFlow Accxes controllerjob log file. The data is then retrievable via an external account server, such as theAccount Management Tool (AMT).


Introduction

2Getting Started with theWeb Printer ManagementTool

This section of the Setup Guide provides detailed instructions on how to use the WebPrinter Management Tool.

At installation, the Service Representative configures machine settings and outputs aTest Print page with the final configuration information. This Test Print page providesuseful information regarding the printer software and features configured for yourcustomized Wide Format environment. It can be found in the same location as theService Log. Once you have changed the default settings to your liking, reprint the TestPage to keep current details for future references. The IP Address of the printer is oftenrequired information.

NOTEThe IP Address is needed several times in this Setup Guide. Keep the Test Print pagehandy as you proceed.

Prerequisites to Accessing Web PrinterManagement Tool• Check and change your browser setting, so that it does not try to access the FreeFlow

Accxes controller through a proxy server.

• Configure your Network Connections.

Verify these settings and configurations are correct prior to accessing the Web PrinterManagement Tool.


Check Proxy ConnectionsInternet Explorer

To deselect a Proxy connection in Internet Explorer, perform the following steps:1. In the Web browser, select Tools > Internet Options.2. Click the Connections tab.3. Click LAN Settings.4. In the Proxy server section, deselect the Use a proxy server for your LAN check box.5. Click OK.

3. Press the Enter key. The application opens.



Viewing the Printer Queue Tab Set

Job Queue

This is the main display, which shows active and inactive jobs. There can be up to 256jobs in the printer spool queue.

Hold Queue

When Administration Managed Queue is enabled, all print jobs submitted are placed inthe Hold Queue, therefore do not print automatically. If the System Administrator hasset password protection, users will not see the Cancel, Release, Hold or Reprint job options.

If a print job is in progress when getting placed on hold, it is stopped.

Held jobs can then be scheduled for printing at a later time.

Jobs can also be placed on hold should there be a media mismatch condition, allowingthe printer to continue printing the next job in queue. To enable the Hold feature, go toSystem Defaults > Media and select the Mismatch Queue check box.

NOTEIf Immediate Image Overwrite is enabled, jobs are not placed on Hold. If Job Reprintis enabled, jobs are not placed on Hold.

Active Queue

This tab shows only the jobs in progress, allowing you to cancel or change priority onany or all jobs simultaneously.



Reprint Queue

This tab shows the jobs available for reprint. Completed copy and print jobs are availablefor reprint if the Administrator has enabled the job reprint feature. Job parameters maybe edited before reprinting by clicking Edit.

Reprinting can be enabled on the Configuration > Miscellaneous page. Thumbnailcreation can also be enabled, allowing users to view a small preview of the first page ofa scanned image.

NOTEIf Immediate Image Overwrite is enabled on the Configuration > Security page,jobs are not reprintable.

NOTESee the online Help for additional reprint information.

TotalAccxes Queue

The TotalAccxes Queue option allows users to monitor the activity of remote printersenabled by the TotalAccxes feature. By defining a scan destination as a TotalAccxesprinter, scanned images can be sent directly to that printer or can be held in theTotalAccxes queue for preview. Once previewed, the scanned images copy count can bemodified and then released for printing to the TotalAccxes printer or the image can bedeleted. In addition, active or completed TotalAccxes jobs are listed. The Clear All button(located on the TotalAccxes tab) provides a method to cancel and clear the entireTotalAccxes queue with one operation.

Users may then select a remote printer destination at the printer using the Scan toRemote Printer feature on their User Interface.



SecurityBy default, any user can view and change the Web Printer Management Tool pages. Toprevent unwanted access to the system settings, the default password needs to bechanged. Follow the steps below to change the default password from the universalaccess number 0.

Changing the System Password

The scanned image is sent to the selected FTP destination and the file no longer remainson the controller hard disk.

To scan to a FTP destination:1. Select Configuration > Scan to FTP.

2. Select the Help file for more information about configuring Scan to FTP destinations.

NOTEIf the Scan to Net key is not installed, the Scanner option is not available andyou are unable to perform this function.

Remote File Naming

Remote File Prefix and Remote File Indexing in Web Printer Management Tool are onlyapplicable for printers without a 15” Touch Screen (UI) or an on-board scanner. TheSynergix Scanner is a detached scanner for example.

These features are described below:

• Remote File Prefix – Remote file names will start with an alphanumeric string.

• Remote File Index – Remote file names will end with the numeric value. This numberwill automatically increase after every scan.



There is also a non–selectable file extension based on the file format chosen (.jpg, .pdf,.cal, .tif, or .jpeg).

Example - If the file format is TIFF and the Remote File Prefix and Index are:

• Remote File Prefix – DESTINATION1_

• Remote File Index – 0

NOTEThe resulting file name will be: DESTINATION1_0000000000.tif.

The next scanned file would be named: DESTINATION1_0000000001.tif.

Scan to TotalAccxes

The Scan to TotalAccxes feature allows a user to scan an image from an on-boardscanner, print on select remote color printers and control the scanned job images throughthe work process.

Users who choose TotalAccxes are allowed to configure up to 16 remote printerdestinations for scanned images in the Web Printer Management Tool.

Once a remote printer destination has been configured on the Web Printer ManagementTool, users can choose the remote printer using the User Interface on a machine withan on-board scanner, such as the 6279, 6204, 6604/6605, or 6622.

The scanned image is sent to the selected remote printer and the file remains on thecontroller hard disk.

NOTEThis feature requires a Scanner and a Scan to Net key.



To set up Scan to TotalAccxes:1. Select Configuration > TotalAccxes.

2. Select the Help file for more information about configuring TotalAccxes destinations.

NOTEAfter a scan, a Scan to TotalAccxes preview image can be viewed on the WebPrinter Management Tool, prior to releasing it to a (TotalAccxes) remote printer.

Disk Image Overwrite

This security feature provides for 3-pass overwrites and 1-pass verification of all imagedata temporarily stored on the Accxes hard drive.

The feature has two modes:

• Immediate Image Overwrite (IIO): Provides for immediate deletion and verificationof image data no longer needed by FreeFlow Accxes. It has minimal impact on printand copy times because only areas of the disk that have been written are deletedand verified.

• On-Demand Image Overwrite (ODIO): Restarts the system and completely eliminatesfrom the hard drive files that are already scanned in and files that are scanned inthe future.



In the Web Printer Management Tool1. Select Configuration > Security.

2. Change Immediate Image Overwrite if desired. Selecting Enabled prevents InstantAccess, TotalAccxes and Job Reprint capability.

CAUTIONImmediate Image Overwrite deletes the data from the hard drive as soon asthe job is complete.

NOTESelect the Help file for more information.

3. Select Start to Initiate On-Demand Image Overwrite if desired.

CAUTIONOn-Demand Image Overwrite deletes everything on the hard drive when started.

NOTEODIO can take more than one hour to complete.

InstantAccxes

InstantAccxes provides publicly shared Instant Folders (networked folders) that can beset up with specific print options to automate document printing. Once InstantAccxesis configured and enabled, Instant Folders show up within your Microsoft Windows®Network Neighborhood. InstantAccxes is officially supported on Microsoft Windows andApple Mac OS X.



One can configure up to 10 separate Instant Folders with unique print options, whichare applied automatically to all documents found within an Instant Folder. Drag anddrop individual documents to an Instant Folder and InstantAccxes locates the document,applies the print options assigned to the Instant Folder, and places the file or set of filesinto the FreeFlow Accxes printer queue. Documents are identified by the Instant Foldername for easy identification within the FreeFlow Accxes printer queue. Once the file issuccessfully added into the FreeFlow Accxes queue, the document is removed from theInstant Folder.

NOTEInstantAccxes cannot be enabled if Immediate Image Overwrite has beenenabled.

To enable InstantAccxes:1. Select the Applications tab.

2. Select the Enable InstantAccxes checkbox.3. Enter the NetBIOS name that should appear on your Windows network in the

Server Name field.4. Select Configuration > Network and select the DHCP enable checkbox, then enter

the same NetBIOS name in the Host Name field.

This setup improves the connection and access between the controller and theWindows network.

NOTESee the Help system for descriptions of the other fields required for setup.



3Configuration and SettingsTest Print

The first task with all network environment setups is printing the Configuration TestPrint and the Settings Test Print. You can print them using the Web Printer ManagementTool or the Printer User Interface.

The purpose of doing this is to provide a record of current system settings for the useof daily operations, network communications setup and restoration of desired parametersin cases of unexpected change (such as the accidental use of the Restore Factory DefaultUtility).

NOTETest print sets should be saved when the initial installation is complete and defaultsettings are defined, and any time the default settings are changed. These shouldbe stored with the machine Service Log.
